1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Desmosomes are cell-cell adhesions necessary for the maintenance of tissue integrity in the skin and heart. While the core components of desmosomes have been identified, peripheral components that modulate canonical or noncanonical desmosome functions still remain largely unexplored. Here we used targeted proximity labeling approaches to further elaborate the desmosome proteome in epidermal keratinocytes. Quantitative mass spectrometry analysis identified all core desmosomal proteins while uncovering a diverse array of new constituents with broad molecular functions. By individually targeting the inner and outer dense plaques, we defined proteins enriched within these subcompartments. We validated a number of these novel desmosome-associated proteins and find that many are membrane proximal proteins that show a dependence on functional desmosomes for their cortical localization. We further explored the mechanism of localization and function of two novel desmosome-associated adaptor proteins enriched in the desmosome proteome, Crk and Crk-like (CrkL). These proteins interacted with Dsg1 and rely on Dsg1 and desmoplakin for robust cortical localization. Epidermal deletion of both Crk and CrkL resulted in perinatal lethality with defects in desmosome morphology and keratin organization, thus demonstrating the utility of this dataset in identifying novel proteins required for desmosome-dependent epidermal integrity.
